It won't be easy to use Reax, if it's even possible. You would have to make some serious code modifications, both in terms of energy calculations and topology interpretation. The former could possibly be achieved with tabulated potentials, but the latter would certainly have to be coded. Reax doesn't use traditional bonds, and the Gromacs topology format doesn't know how to deal with bond orders in lieu of actual bonds.
